In Bruges (2008)
Don't waste your time!!!!
Total rubbish.
I can not believe an actor as good Ralph Fiennes would waste his time on such a pointless movie. I have no problem touching on taboos for humour but it should be funny, and some of the lines were just plain offensive with no real comedic value.
The only good thing about this was Bruges.
Martin McDonagh fails in this movie. I rarely want my money back after watching something but I did with this.
If you are black, gay or vertically challenged you may want to avoid this movie.
Rise of the Footsoldier (2007)
Brutal but gripping British gangster movie
I'm always wary of saying that a film is excellent after only seeing it once, but me and my wife and friends have been talking about this film since we watched it.
Although extremely brutal in places this movie is one of the best British gangster titles i have seen in years now.
The story is gripping and the football firm fighting scenes although perhaps a little over the top with the blood make sorry titles like green street and football factories seem like a walk in the park.
I was extremely impressed with Terry Stone (known to those who have been in the rave scene as terry turbo) and as a fan of this genre was delighted to see some great bad boy actors from eastenders (jonny allen and dan for those who know).
A great take on a subject that has certainly been done before, but it was also nice to see the early rave scene being covered as well, something i'm sure as time goes by we will see a lot more of.
All in all if you are a fan of the genre i have little doubt you will enjoy this movie.
I have a feeling once it is released on DVD this will become a cult movie. And rightly so.
